Media Queries Responsive Code | More Details
MQs in this template control many parts of each webpage to conform for mobile and tablet. The responsive MQs css classes are located in the "media-queries.css". Three stages are used for screen widths of 1050, 750 and 482. As the browser width is made more narrow and each "stage" width threshold (breakpoint) is reached, code defined in the "media-queries.css" will take effect changing the webpage layout. You can edit these sizes in the "media-queries.css" using any plain text editor.

The "media-queries.css" is for mobile and includes some of the same class names as the "style.css" that alters these classes as the browser width becomes more narrow.

Menu on Mobile: The mobile menu includes two "stage" width thresholds of 890 and 640 in the "menu-drop.css". At 640 it will stack the menu items when viewed on smartphones. See "MENU EDITING" below and also testing MQs in support.

When editing some styles, if there is a "like" class in both the "style.css" and "media-queries.css" you may need to edit classes in both files in some cases. See responsive support details.

Options:
MENU EDITING: | More Details
This template includes a responsive drop menu. You can edit the names of the links like "ABOUT" or "CONTACT" to other page names by editing the "menu.js". Only change the one instance of the name and not the name with the ".htm" after it unless you have also renamed the .htm page. Whatever you change in the "menu.js" will change every page on the website. Keep the names short so your menu does not get too wide. You can add more pages by copying one link in the "menu.js" and pasting it below itself. Be sure to back up your files before you edit them. Click link above for more details.

SAMPLES & VIDEO PAGE NUMBERED BUTTON MENUS: Edit the "menu-music.js" or "menu-video.js" to update the "samples?.htm" or "video-?.htm" pages. You can rename the buttons with any names but try to keep them short for mobile. Copy and paste any link to add a new button.

NOTE: If you use a ' in a .js file add a slash before it like this \'

Responsive Image Note: If you want to make images larger in width, edit the image in the picts folder, then in the "style.css" you may need to edit the "max-width" style. Responsive image heights are automatic.

COLORS & STYLES: | More Details | Media Queries
Edit the font sizes, menu styles, background colors, page widths and heights, and all template colors in the "style.css" using any plain text editor (mobile menu colors are in the "media-queries.css").

ADDING IMAGES: | More Details
You can add new images to the template pages, however, you will want to keep your images small in size so your website will load quickly on mobile devices.

ADDING SCRIPTS OR ANIMATION:
Scripts, Javascripts and Flash or video can be added to any of the template pages, however, most mobile devices load these types of items slowly and\or may not have support for these applications. If adding these types of items it is best not to add them to the homepage in the template.
